This wiki has been initiated to act as a common central sharing forum for the specific purpose of celebrating the blur thats increasingly ocuring within Science, IT &Technology:
It recognizes the value of importance of boundaries becoming more open and the fusion of knowledges to come together in different forms for different intentions. With advances such as hybrid fuel cells, biotechnology, biomicry, nanotechnology etc, we are witnessing the fusion of different ways of thinking and boundaries.THIS IS THIS SITE AIM. The anachronisms "Science" , "IT" and "Design Technology" are used as umbrella subheadings only but intend their 'contents' to be much more widespread and encasing.This fits in with con-current innitiatives e.g. in Diploma IB Information Technology Global Society, Environmental Systems and Society
My name is Jonathan Kelly and I am an educator (Presently HOD Ecole Mondiale World School, Mumbai, India) and have co-ordinated Design Technology across all ages from 5-18.(see Wiki created for Diploma IB DT and link for information about me http://dptechecole.wikispaces.com/ )We are increasingly living in an inter-connected world where sharing between former disciplines, whilst still important, often blurs as in the world which are students will encounter. Barriers are breaking down and it's the connections which is the fascination behind this initiative. I encourage you to share your discoveries to make this a worthwhile site for people interested in con-current directions.
(The latest 'wow' gadgets . Although this is now a few years old, integrations of different technologies are very relevant; give it a couple of seconds with commercials at the beginning!
